Bath Taverness
Bath Taverness broke through at Newton Abbot three months ago with a first career win, but the 5-year-old has struggled to replicate that success since. The horse has managed just one placement from four races since the breakthrough, and yesterday's run marked the fifth start in this current run—a sequence that reads as three blanks, a fifth-place finish, and a tenth. That's tough going for any horse, and it suggests Bath Taverness may be finding its level harder to crack than that initial July victory promised.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The bare numbers tell the story: one win and one place from five races gives a win rate of roughly 1 in 5, which sounds respectable in the abstract but masks a recent skid. Bath Taverness has been racing actively and is clearly sound—it's out again just a day after yesterday's effort—but finding the winner's circle a second time looks like it might take some work. David Evans' yard at Pandy has had a strong season with 37 winners, so the horse is in a capable operation. Whether Bath Taverness can rediscover the form that worked at Newton Abbot earlier this year, or whether that win was a high-water mark, will become clearer over the next few starts.
